Renee Rhoades , LCSW, CSW

Renee Rhoades is a licensed social worker in Colorado with 18 years of professional experience supporting people through significant life challenges. She holds the credentials LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and CSW (Clinical Social Worker) and draws on a long track record of working with stress, anxiety, family conflict, LGBT-related concerns, grief and loss, and other complex issues.

Renee approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, shaping conversations and treatment plans to fit individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. She emphasizes practical support alongside emotional processing, helping clients navigate relationship struggles, career concerns, parenting questions, trauma, and issues related to intimacy and self-esteem. Her background includes work with addictions, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue among caregivers.

Beginning therapy can require courage, and Renee acknowledges that step while offering steady guidance. She works collaboratively to identify goals, adjust strategies as needed, and support clients as they build skills and insight. Renee is also available to work with international clients and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s circumstances.

Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Access

Renee uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address a range of concerns, focusing on practical strategies and emotional healing. These approaches draw on research-supported methods that help people manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship difficulties by teaching coping skills, improving communication, and reframing unhelpful patterns.

In addition to formal therapeutic methods, Renee incorporates coaching-oriented work to help clients set goals, clarify values, and develop actionable plans for career, parenting, and life-transition challenges. This coaching perspective complements clinical work by emphasizing strengths and forward movement.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Renee partners with each client to evaluate needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting techniques over time so therapy fits the individual rather than the other way around.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, access care from different locations, and maintain continuity of support when life circumstances change.
